Spurs Transfers: 5 Reasons Jermain Defoe Moving To Toronto Is A Good Idea

3. Former Premier League Players Will Help Defoe To Settle In

As mentioned, a number of players that have graced the Premier League are now playing in the MLS. This means that Defoe will see some familiar faces when he moves, which can only benefit him as he looks to hit the ground running. Players playing in North America currently include Tim Cahill, Robbie Keane and Theirry Henry. Defoe may well be looking to link-up with Robert Earnshaw who himself is well known to English football fans. Clearly, both strikers could give Toronto a quite explosive forward line that rival clubs will be in awe of.
